After a Boone walk, Martinez singled through the right side of the infield, scoring Richards as Boone was thrown out at third base on a perfect throw by right fielder Max Smith. A strikeout and hit by pitch later, Daryl Myers stepped into the batter’s box with two outs and launched the walk-off three-run homer to give the Bolts their fifth straight win.
